Folk singer Johnny Flynn is starring in a new Channel 4 comedy series about a man who’s discovered he’s got an STD and must track down all of his previous lovers to tell them.
He will be acting in the show, entitled Scrotal Recall, alongside Antonia Thomas (Alisha in Misfits) and Daniel Ings (Pete Versus Life).
The musician, who is primarily known for his part in band Johnny Flynn & The Sussex Wit, is also an actor and counts the lead in a 2006 Dutch film, Crusade in Jeans, among a handful of credits.
He plays Dylan Witter, “a hapless chap whose romantic conquests have landed him in a sticky situation… quite literally,” Channel 4 says.
Dylan has contracted chlamydia, and must, with the help of his friends Evie (Thomas) and Luke (Ings), dig up his sexual past and revisit old encounters to come clean, so to speak.
